Connect your AI agent to Capsule Studio — create projects, render videos, and produce with the Capsule coproducer, right from your chat.
Pick your AI tool and follow the steps. Everything runs against the hosted server — nothing to install or self-host.

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list-projects | Lists all projects the user has access to. |
| get-project | Gets a single project by ID. |
| create-project | Create a new empty Capsule project. Optional aspectRatioId sets the initial aspect ratio (defaults to Wide), and optional designSystemId pins the design system. Returns the project ID, design system ID and name, and Studio URL. |
| rename-project | Renames a Capsule project by ID. |
| duplicate-project | Duplicate a Capsule project. Returns the new project's ID and Studio URL. |
| get-project-link | Get the Capsule Studio URL for a project. |
| get-frame-image | Renders a project frame at a timeline timecode or a component's build time. |
| list-organizations | Lists your Capsule organizations and shows which is your active workspace. |
| switch-organization | Switches your active workspace — the same selection Studio's sidebar makes, so both stay in step. |
| list-aspect-ratios | Lists the aspect-ratio presets a project can be set to, with the id each one is set by. |
| set-project-aspect-ratio | Sets a Capsule project's aspect ratio to one of the presets. |
| inspect-template | Returns the available template input fields for a project's render template. |
| render-variant | Initiates a video render for a project template with the provided inputs. |
| get-render-status | Checks the status of a video render by export ID. |
| list-project-media | Lists the replaceable clip, B-roll, and audio media in a project, in timeline order. |
| replace-asset | Replaces the media asset on a project node with media from a URL. |
| check-transcription | Checks transcription status for uploaded media and inserts the transcript into the project when ready. |
| add-media | Opens the Add Media panel in your chat to upload files or URLs, record from your camera or mic with a teleprompter, or generate media — then optionally places the result on the timeline. |
| replace-clip-media | Replaces the audio, or a speaking video, on an existing timeline clip from a URL — keeping the clip's position and re-deriving its captions to match. |
| set-broll | Fills a clip's product B-roll slots from an ordered list of clip URLs, ingesting each into Capsule cloud, then re-sequences every B-roll on that clip into equal, non-overlapping windows so they play one after another rather than stacking. |
| list-components | Lists a project's video components — those placed on the timeline and the types available to add. |
| set-component | Sets one or more properties on a project's video component. |
| set-voiceover | Sets the volume of an AI voiceover audio node. |
| add-design-system-component | Places a design-system component on the timeline — as its own clip, or as an overlay on an existing clip. |
| anchor-to-clip | Pins a video component to a host clip's timeline window, positioning it relative to that clip rather than to the project. |
| probe-media | Reads technical metadata for a project's uploaded media — duration, container, codecs, resolution, frame rate and audio layout. |
| get-page-assets | Fetches a public web page and returns its title, description, and the images on it — including ordered gallery photos with source and rendition metadata. |
| upload-asset-by-url | Uploads media from a public URL onto the project timeline, returning immediately while the media uploads in the background. |
| check-url-upload | Checks the progress of a URL upload and places the media on the timeline once it finishes. |
| list-voices | Lists the Capsule voices available for text-to-speech: actor voices for generate-voiceover, org voices for generate-org-voiceover. |
| list-voiceovers | Lists non-clip voiceover audio nodes placed over a project's existing visuals. |
| generate-voiceover | Generates an AI voiceover from a script and reserves its timeline node — a clip, or an audio node played over the existing visuals. |
| generate-org-voiceover | Generates an AI voiceover using an organization's ElevenLabs voice, without touching the timeline. Poll get-voiceover-status for the finished audio. |
| get-voiceover-status | Checks an AI voiceover generation and, once complete, binds the audio and its transcript to the timeline node reserved for it. |
| place-generated-voiceover | Adds a completed AI voiceover generation to the project timeline as a clip or an audio node. |
| regenerate-voiceover | Replaces an existing actor-voice AI voiceover's script or voice in place, keeping its timeline position. The current audio stays until the new take is ready. |
| regenerate-org-voiceover | Replaces an existing org-voice AI voiceover in place, keeping its timeline position and current audio until the new take is ready. |
| run-voice-magic | Start Voice Magic on these clips and wait until cleaned audio can be turned on. Tags them so Studio can also turn it on if the project is open. If it is already done, turns it on now. If it is still running after waiting, call again later or ask to turn it on. Skips clips that already have it on. |
| set-voice-magic | Turn Voice Magic on or off for these clips. On only works after the job has finished. |
| remove-clip-at-index | Removes the clip at the given zero-based index from a Capsule project's timeline. |
| duplicate-clip | Duplicates a clip in a project's timeline, identified by its id/handle. |
| reorder-clips | Sets the order of every clip in a project's timeline from a complete ordered list of clip handles. |
| remove-component | Removes a placed component (an overlay, caption, B-roll or audio layer) from a project's timeline by its key. |
| split-clip | Splits a clip in a project's timeline into two clips at a given position, using the same split logic as Studio. |
| remove-voiceover | Removes an AI voiceover clip or audio node from a project's timeline by its key. |
| cut-words | Cuts words out of a project's timeline by transcript node slug, closing the gap. |
| restore-cut-words | Restores previously cut words back into a project's timeline by cut node slug. |
| do-auto-jump-cuts | Runs Auto Jump Cut: finds and removes every silent gap above a minimum length, keeping all spoken words. |
| get-project-transcript-md | Reads a project's word-level transcript as compact markdown lines. |
| get-compact-transcript-md | Reads an uploaded asset's transcript as sentence-level cues with timecodes — the input for choosing which moments to cut. |
| video-cutdown | Cuts a short sequence out of one or more transcribed source videos by inserting the chosen time ranges as trimmed clips. |
| inspect-image | Inspects a public image URL and returns a grounded visual summary plus an image-to-video motion prompt. Use before generate-video when the image cannot be viewed directly. |
| generate-video | Start an AI video generation from a text prompt or image. Returns a generation ID to poll for the result. |
| generate-image | Start an AI image generation from a text prompt, or edit/compose from reference images. Returns a generation ID to poll for the result. |
| list-voices | List the Capsule voices available for text-to-speech generation. |

| play-video | Opens an inline video player for a video URL — for example a finished render. Does not modify the project. |
| get-file-url | Resolves a Payload file ID into a presigned URL, for example so play-video can play it. |

| set-soundtrack-settings | Updates volume, Adjust Selection, AutoMix, and AutoMix duck amount on the project's current soundtrack. |
| create-video-export | Creates video files from a Capsule project's current timeline, with options for aspect ratio and quality. |
